static IP for the V85, you need to enter the correct IP address information including: IP address,
network mask, default router and DNS server IP address. To set make these entries, please follow
the steps below:

Under the “Static IP” submenu, enter the IP address, network mask and default router and DNS

PPPoE Method
You would configure your V85 to use PPPoE in following scenarios.

cannot share Internet access:
